I asked God if it was okay to be melodramatic
and she said yes
I asked her if it was okay to be short
and she said it sure is
I asked her if I could wear nail polish
or not wear nail polish
and she said honey
she calls me that sometimes
she said you can do just exactly
what you want to
Thanks God I said
And is it even okay if I don’t paragraph
my letters
Sweetcakes God said
who knows where she picked that up
what I’m telling you is
Yes Yes Yes

I had a friend, he used to say, "God is a woman- she's black, Jewish, and has slanted eyes." It was his way of saying that there's more in the universe than we can imagine, so why constantly curtail our options?
You reminded me of that funny way of being open-- and if there was a God, who bothered to say anything, I think it would be Yes, yes, yes.
Peace, Mari
